Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Seafood

    While the pasta is cooking, rinse and clean all seafood (shrimp, scallops, clams, squid, crab meat, and mussels) under cold water. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Then add sliced mushrooms and halved cherry tomatoes, cooking for 3-4 minutes until softened.

  2. 4

    Add Seafood

    Add shrimp, scallops, clams, squid, crab meat, and mussels to the skillet. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the seafood is cooked through and mussels have opened.

  3. 5

    Combine Pasta and Herbs

    Add the cooked linguine to the skillet with the seafood. Toss everything together gently to combine. Add chopped parsley and basil, and toss again to mix. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serving
